Kalavathi Transport

Kalavathi Transport is based out of 1-56 in Kondapuram. It is not a very big town, so things move a bit slower here than in the city. Our office is just a plain room where we keep track of our vehicles and where they are supposed to be. Transport is a messy business because there are always delays or breakdowns to deal with. We spend a lot of time on the phone talking to drivers who are stuck somewhere or waiting for a load. We have a couple of old chairs for when the drivers come in to drop off their paperwork and share a cup of tea. There is a lot of dust that comes in from the trucks driving past the door. We don't have any fancy technology to track the trucks; we just rely on calling them and hoping they answer. The building we are in has seen better days, and the paint is peeling in some places. We don't really worry about the looks of the place as long as the work gets done. Sometimes we stay late into the night waiting for a delivery to be confirmed. It is a lot of waiting and a lot of stress when things go wrong, but we have been doing it for a long time. It is just our way of life here in Kondapuram.
